</div>Aliso Viejo, CA, May 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Terumo Neuro, a global leader in neurovascular innovation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Terumo Corporation, today announced the publication of results from the RAGE¹ (Ruptured Aneurysms Treated with Hydrogel Coils) study in the <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=-AlPtPGUEkF_QmW1MRyWYDV1KMwgNdarfaozJAPAvdYFrqg3PaBMTOCMrIBoUTJo1J3bM8BfkuZNMtn-C-fXPgIaXmYaPc-VMA3HVrLAShexqloFIKYOzRnM2g9KgU9TPgTG5A_5Zhho7BDRnXMYvJusV6qxUc6y0t-Gf83Myl8FjPcVESlONO3SAMOMM6RH" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery (JNIS)">Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery (JNIS)</a>. RAGE is the largest prospective, core laboratory–adjudicated, externally monitored trial of endovascular coil embolization for ruptured intracranial aneurysms conducted in North America, providing robust contemporary evidence supporting the safety and effectiveness of 2nd generation HydroCoil Embolic System (HES) coils in clinical practice. The multicenter, nonrandomized study enrolled more than 750 adult patients across 45 North American sites, with 100% ruptured, saccular intracranial aneurysms, reflecting real world treatment using current techniques and strategies. The trial delivers high quality, peer reviewed data with sufficient scale to support meaningful subset analyses and evaluation of key variables impacting effectiveness, safety, and durability of endovascular coiling in this high-risk patient population. “The publication of the RAGE study represents another important benchmark for endovascular aneurysm treatment. It builds upon other high-quality studies, like GREAT and HEAT, which have consistently demonstrated the continual evolution in the safety and effectiveness of coil embolization for the treatment of ruptured cerebral aneurysms with the HES system,” said Dr. David Fiorella, Director of the Cerebrovascular Center at Stony Brook Medicine. “Over the years we have appreciated progressively improved clinical and angiographic outcomes for these patients with increasing occlusion rates and durability as well as exceedingly low re-rupture rates.” Each year, approximately 30,000 people in the United States experience a ruptured brain aneurysm—an event that occurs every 18 minutes. Ruptured brain aneurysms are fatal in about 50% of cases, and among those who survive, roughly 66% suffer a permanent neurological deficit. These sobering statistics underscore the urgent need for continued advances in diagnosis and treatment and are consistent with data shared by the <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=kK8iXR3ZUWshl0EZ2TZQUKM0jYweqsGZa3eVazQusZ-XJsWIIl8gK-4IUWvchzpAjrR0zhmve5pdbMrbc_F_4qk0vuk1-rU2w7-zOr5fBAM=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Brain Aneurysm Foundation">Brain Aneurysm Foundation</a>, a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to brain aneurysm awareness, education, and research. Compelling Clinical Outcomes at Scale RAGE met its primary effectiveness and safety objectives, demonstrating outcomes that compare favorably with historical benchmarks for bare platinum coil embolization in ruptured aneurysms. Key findings include: <ul><li>Adequate occlusion rate of 86%, statistically superior to the 80.4% performance goal established by the CLARITY2 study of bare platinum coils (p=0.0004).</li></ul> <ul><li>Exceptionally low aneurysm rebleeding rate of 0.5%, compared with approximately 1% per year reported in the CARAT1 study and a 2.4% early rebleeding rate observed in ISAT4-7.</li></ul> <ul><li>Strong functional independence, with 88% of patients achieving a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score ≤2, favorably compared with outcomes reported in CLARITY2 and ISAT4-7.</li></ul> These results reinforce the role of Hydrogel coils as a safe and durable embolization solution in the acute management of ruptured intracranial aneurysms, a condition associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Advancing Evidence‑Based Neurovascular Care Ruptured cerebral aneurysms remain a leading cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage, affecting tens of thousands of patients annually in the United States alone, with substantial global mortality. Against this backdrop, the RAGE study provides timely, practice‑relevant evidence supporting innovation that improves patient outcomes in a life‑threatening condition. “Terumo Neuro is committed to advancing clinically meaningful solutions grounded in rigorous evidence,” said Nagesh Uppuluri, SVP, Global Clinical &amp; Medical Affairs, Terumo Neuro. “The publication of RAGE in JNIS underscores our long‑term investment in large‑scale, high‑quality clinical research and our partnership with leading investigators to address some of the most challenging conditions in neurovascular care.” As the largest prospective study of its kind in ruptured aneurysms in North America, RAGE establishes a new benchmark for evidence quality in neurointerventional research. By combining external monitoring, independent core laboratory adjudication, and contemporary treatment practices, the study equips neurointerventionalists with credible data they can trust, understand, and cite when making critical treatment decisions.
